Not only that, there are many other ingredients you can use that don't come from animals. There are forms of Traditional medicine that don't use anything other than energy, let alone animals. The whole practise should not be shunned because a few recipes use animal products. If I were you I'd go after the poachers, who kill the animals and don't use everything...leave them there to rot.

Don't stick all traditions in the same bag.
Indian alternative medicine does not predate on endangered species, for example. Let's be honest: it’s China that’s the main problem as regards this very issue. There’s no other nation worldwide that takes so little consideration into ecology and animal well-being. As a matter of demonstration, the Chinese are about to buy a huge chunk of Tanzanian territory, as to cut concrete roads into it, so to transport all the wood and trees they’re chopping off in Africa en route for China. Will they care about the Serengeti reserve that happens to be on the way? No, of course not! They’re gonna hack it down with bulldozers, cranes and trucks, whatever the price the local animals will have to pay for it, be it going extinct.
If you want to be serious about ecology and animal rights, you better start give it a second though before you buy that product made in China.
